LAX

(Rendering: Fentress Architects)

Los Angeles International Airport is a symbol of the Jet Age. The Fentress-designed Bradley West International Terminal, to be completed in 2014 (artist rendering shown here), is inspired by the rhythmic waves that lap the sands of nearby beaches. A skybridge will eventually link the terminals aboveground, and will allow passengers an unparalleled view of the Pacific Ocean to the west and the Santa Monica Mountains to the east.
